STOP PLAYING GAMES!

Lucas --

I'm sure you're as sick of hearing about Republicans playing political games with the budget as I am.

The truth is that they are putting Americans' health, jobs, and education at risk. They're refusing to consider any deal that has even the tiniest revenue increase on the wealthiest of Americans -- and risking our futures in the process.

We have until March 1st to strike a deal that would stave off these harmful cuts. President Obama is working hard to prevent these harmful 'meat cleaver' tactics and protect hardworking Americans, but he can't do it alone.

That's why I'm writing to you today -- to ask you to stand with Louise and the President once again. Will you sign our petition to John Boehner and Republicans in Congress telling them to stop playing games with Americans' lives and jobs?

If enough of us demand that they stop putting politics before interests of working Americans, they have to listen. We only have until March 1 -- please sign now.

Thanks for standing with us once again.
